Project Announcement - EPIC

On 1st of September 2017 the European cooperative research project, EPIC "Enabling Practical Wireless Tb/s Communications with Next Generation Channel Coding" has started. The EPIC kick-off meeting took place from 6th to 7th September in Kaiserslautern, Germany. EPIC aims to develop a new generation of Forward-Error-Correction (FEC) codes in order to enable practical wireless Terabyte per second (Tb/s) technology. A key objective of EPIC is to develop and utilize a disruptive FEC design allowing to advance state-of-the-art FEC schemes and to obtain the principal channel codes for beyond-5G (B5G) use-cases. The EPIC consortium consists of 8 partners from 7 different countries (Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Sweden, Turkey and United Kingdom). Due to excellent cooperation in the proposal creation phase the basis for a very promising collaboration has already been set.
